A correspondent Of the Union Signal,
discussing St, Paul's charge to the Cor
rinthian women to keep silence in the
churches" mentions a gentle quiet
Christian lady who once had residence
in Little Rock, the lady writer says:
III once heard Mrs. Benton, who was
missionary for number OF years in
Syria, give most satisfactory explana-
ton of St. Paul's charge to the Corrin-
THAN women. She said that the places
of worship were built now, as they
doubtless were in St. Pauls time, with a
corner for the women enclosed by a
close fence reaching above their heads
OF course their hearing is greatly i'm
peded by this, and they naturally loose
their interest in the service and fall to
talking. So St. Paul forbade this, and
told them if they wanted to learn the
gossip of the day they must ask their
Husbands, who then, as now, were pretty
we'll informed with regard to it, notwith-
standing the supposed monopoly OF the
article by the women,

Governor Taylor, in his first message
to the Legislature of Tennessee, has the
following utterance:
"Good government, public morals and
the welfare Of society, demand that the
strongest safeguards possible be estab-
lished and maintained for the protection
of female virtue. Upon this depend the
well being of our race, the sanctity and
prosperity of the married state, the peace
of home and the health and prosperity of
the family circle"
The Governor goes on to say, that evil
brought Gin a ruinous way to the lives of
pure and innocent females is a crime of
frequent occurrence, whose merited
punishment is scarcely possible in this
life. There is much crime of the nature
which the laws of man cannot reach,
but it is manifestly the duty of Legislators
to provide the utmost protection of which
human law is capable
Governor Taylor recommends then,
the passage OF law, making it felony
to, under the promise Of marriage, thus
blight the life Of female ofpurity and
truth of character, rendering. therefore,
her innocent life burden.
This is noble part Of Gov. Taylor's
first message, the protection Of a class at
once unaware Of the evil in the world,
and helpless in their innocence.
